I'm looking for good riddles

If there is a good series that has interesting riddles, prophecies or puzzles the characters need to solve please recommend that story.


More importantly this is a thread where you're supposed to jot down a riddle if one comes to mind. The rule is to add the answer and hide it behind a spoiler button.
